Claymation meets hardcore! What’s not to love? Radkey’s new video for Glore – directed by Nicos Livesey for Channel 4’s Random Acts strand – dispenses with any of that band-in-a-room stuff, instead featuring a preposterously time-intensive claymation clip. Mind you, a band-in-a-room would have been easier, given the clip took 10 weeks to make, used five stop-motion animators, consumed 435 bars of clay and two bottles of factor 50 suncream. Have a look and see what you think.
If you fancy seeing Radkey in the flesh, rather than in the clay, they’re on tour in the UK in October and November.
